The Impact of European Rights on National Legal Cultures
This book contributes to the debate about the impact of European Community Law on the national constitutional orders and cultures of the respective Member States. The author examines the doctrine of sovereignty as a mechanism within which this impact may be best assessed and in particular how it underwrites the tension between European Union rights and the rights provided by the respective legal orders of the Member States. In particular the book focuses on political,social and civil rights, drawing from T.H. Marshall's typology. In endorsing an appropriate analytical framework, the book challenges both existing law and secondary literature in order to argue that the terminology, the concept...
International Law of Taxation

Eventually, the series will offer a comprehensive treatment of the whole of the field. At the same time, each individual title will be a reliable go-to source for practising international lawyers, judges and arbitrators, government and military of officers, scholars, teachers, and students.

Sustainability through Participation?
Can—and should—participation be a means of achieving sustainability? The concepts of sustainability and participation are both in vogue, and many international, supranational and national legal texts and standards refer to these two concepts. However, there are still several unanswered questions that invite legal inquiry: which sustainability? Which kinds of participation? Participation by whom? How are the two concepts of sustainability and participation effectively interlinked in legal provisions? This book approaches the interconnection between sustainability and participation inductively and precisely in areas of law which are commonly associated with sustainability and sustainable development: national, European and international environmental and economic law.
Der Stabilitätsrat
Im Jahr 2009 hat der Gesetzgeber im Rahmen der Foderalismusreform II nicht nur eine "Schuldenbremse" eingefuhrt, sondern auch ein neues Gremium: Den Stabilitatsrat. Dieser soll u.a. die Haushaltswirtschaft von Bund und Landern uberwachen. In der Wissenschaft fand dieses Gremium bisher nur wenig Beachtung. Diese Lucke will Marius Thye schliessen: Er befasst sich ausfuhrlich mit den Rechtsgrundlagen der Arbeit des Stabilitatsrates, seiner Organisation, Arbeitsweise und seinen unterschiedlichen Aufgaben, und ordnet ihn in das System der deutschen Finanzverfassung ein. Als Jurist und Staatswissenschaftler versucht der Autor dabei zwischen verschiedenen Disziplinen zu vermitteln: Er greift okonomische Erkenntnisse auf und fuhrt diese in rechtspolitische und -wissenschaftliche Diskussionen ein. Gleichzeitig macht er Okonomen die rechtlichen Grundlagen fur die Stabilitatsratsarbeit verstandlich. Skeptisch ist der Autor mit Blick auf die Frage, ob der Stabilitatsrat di e nachhaltige Tragfahigkeit der offentlichen Haushalte durch eine effektive Haushaltsuberwachung sichert.

Central Banking and Financial Stability in East Asia
This book explores financial stability issues in the context of East Asia. In the East Asian region financial stability has been a major concern ever since the Asian crisis of 1997/98, which still looms large in the collective memory of the affected countries. The global crisis, which had its starting point in 2007, only served to exacerbate this concern. Safeguarding financial stability is therefore a major goal of any country in the region. Diverging cultural, political and economic backgrounds may however pose different stability challenges and necessary cooperation may be complicated by this diversity. Against this backdrop the contributions of this book by leading academics from the fields of economics and law as well as by practitioners from central banks shed light on various financial stability issues. The volume explores the legal environment of central banks as lenders of last resort and analyzes challenges to financial stability such as shadow banking and the choice of exchange rate regimes. Case studies from China, Japan and Indonesia are contrasted with experiences from Europe.
